The house was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. We had an issue with the shower not heating well, which Hugo attempted to have fix. The location is great. Juan the caretaker was wonderful and assisted us ant time we had a question.

Comfortable house with everything you need. And good space. We had a great time with my family, some details already known in previous maintenance reviews on the doors and pool. But outside of it, we had a great time. Thanks

The house is large but lacks maintenance and the pool area for a house of 12 people is quite small and full of mosquitoes x mango deposits in pudding

This was a great space for our group of 10. We could spread out or come together for meals. We loved all the bathrooms and sleeping arrangement options. The beach was just a few minutes away. We felt very safe and secure. Would definitely recommend!!

The house was super cozy, has a good layout, excellent location (3-5 mins from the beach on foot) and very well equipped. Many thanks to Hugo for the timely communication. Only a few minor repairs to the pool and bathrooms are pending that would have a much more pleasant stay. As for everything else, a great option and we would definitely do it again!

This place is amazing. The place was amazing, incredible tranquility, the house is very fresh and equipped. The privacy and security you feel is unparalleled. We were able to rest deliciously. We had a person who helped us in case we needed it, very attentive and helped us with whatever we needed. I would come back a thousand times! Thank you!!!

About our experience with my family in Germany, the first and most important thing is that water service is limited, from the moment we arrive the pressure is very low and it often does not go up to the showers in the bathrooms...every day it has been an odyssey because we are 10 people and we must take turns to bathe at all times of the day. Not to mention, the hot water works. Another detail to note that it has been very uncomfortable is that the bathrooms have the smell of black water that we feel in the rooms, the toilets are constantly clogged which I suppose is due to the low water pressure. Not to mention, the bathroom and the shower drain in the room located on the ranch are constantly clogged. There are several kitchen drawers that don't work, so we can't use the house's wide variety of utensils. The electrical connections we feel that some have short circuits (racho and kitchen) the house is beautiful, but for a long stay like the one we rent and for the number of people we share it is uncomfortable. We chose it specifically to bring my German husband's family, who are visiting Panama for the first time and were eager to enjoy our country's beach. This is our 3rd airbnb rental in December, that's why we can compare the services. Juan Carlos, the caretaker of the house, has been very attentive to connecting the water pump, but you should still know that the problem is deeper. The house should not have low water pressure this is basic and we are responsible for reporting as this may cause you inconvenience later on by offering services that do not work completely. Juan Carlos helps a lot in what is within his reach. But it needs more deep maintenance, so unfortunately we see that it won't improve. The pool also needs tile renovation. The price I feel is too much for the benefits.

The house is large and cozy. I loved that it has different environments to talk and have fun as a family. It has plenty of patio and trees that allow for a nice breeze. The bohío area and pool were spectacular and the house is a 5 minute walk to the beach. It was fantastic! Of course, as it is an old property there are certain topics to repair... the visitor service could not be used because it has the damaged sink pipe and an unpleasant smell. Then I understood that the candles in the other amenities could be used to minimize the smell of sewage that sometimes felt (sometimes working and sometimes not). The property, despite having a backup tank, the amount of water that came out of the faucets could be scarce, on many occasions, bothering certain activities such as washing took more time, showering comfortably with or without hot water. The house is so spacious I would recommend having more wifi repeaters to give better internet coverage to the whole house. The kitchen drawers are large and old so it requires strength to open them because they don't have a travel mechanism. And the doors to the room and service in the bohemian area need to be replaced because they have gaps. The pool area has some “chipped” edge that even though it wasn't serious at all, it did make my 6-year-old niece of those little thin cuts annoying. Despite all that, we enjoyed it and Hugo was always willing to answer questions and Juan Carlos, the caretaker always respectful and helpful. Thank you for the hospitality!

The house is perfect for a family holiday or with a group of friends. It is spacious and spacious, it has a trampoline where the children enjoyed a lot. The beach is 5 minutes walk and the couple in charge of the house is very attentive and cooperative, in addition the lady cooks very well. Full recommended.

Beautiful home and great location! It’s a definite 2 thumbs up. My family really enjoyed themselves. The beach is just but a block away. The area has all the stores you need for shopping for your stay. The restaurants nearby are friendly and food was good. It’s pretty much a gated community. I’m hoping to return post-covid when more places are open for tourism. Your group will have a very comfortable & delightful stay here.

Our stay at Hugo's place was incredible. We stayed for almost two weeks, grandparents and kids included. The place is very close to the beach and has all the amenities inside to enjoy (pool, trampoline, bohio, bbq). The place is very quiet, so you can enjoy with your crew. Thanks Hugo for the hospitality!

The stay in short was great, but there are things to improve. We had very good experiences and not so good ones, then I explain in detail: Positive details: - The house is spectacular, spacious, with capacity for large groups, a variety of amenities, excellent location and the green areas are well cared for. - There is an assistant available that lives on the property that provides maintenance to the house and supports guests when requested. This person was super kind and very supportive during our stay. - On the day of our check-in, cleaning is a little late, so we asked the host to be accessible with check-out and agreed to give us a late check-out, which left us very happy. Details to improve: - Unfortunately, on the day we checked in, there was a problem with the shared bathroom that in our case affected 4 people, the host tried to fix it for two days, but it could not be resolved. The house has other bathrooms, but one had a leak in the sink and another was the maid's bathroom which had the toilet lid quite deteriorated, however, we asked the host to replace it to use it and proceeded to replace it. - The pool of the house is very nice, but it needs to be remodeled since the tiles are peeling and if one is not careful it can get cut off, that was the case of two of my nephews who made small cuts (nothing serious), and the following days they used beach sandals to bathe. - The air conditioning in one of the rooms makes a noise that can make people with light sleep a little uncomfortable. - The WIFI is quite unstable so if the idea is to work during your stay it is advisable to have other connection options in case the internet in the house fails. - Communication with the Host was quite good to a certain extent, and I explain why: when we express all the points that we are not satisfied with and if you had any discount policy for the stay (we asked because in some cases when the experience has not been completely good, the hosts offer a discount for the total stay or other amenities). However, the Host did not respond in the best way to indicate that previous guests had never complained, and their attitude in this situation was not empathetic and reconciled. At the end of our conversation, we were able to come to an agreement because our real issue was not the investment we had made and to get some return from this investment, but rather the points I mentioned need to be improved. On a positive note, the Host was willing to maintain the agreement for a late check-out and apologized for the damages caused. In short, if most of the aforementioned points are improved, the guest experience will surely be completely enjoyable.

Apreciamos tus comentarios Gladys y los tomamos muy en cuenta. Como podrás imaginar, al hospedar a grupos grandes de personas regularmente, pueden surgir situaciones fortuitas por el uso y abuso a la propiedad, los cuales tratamos de solucionar programando mantenimientos preventivos y correctivos cuando amerita para garantizar el goce de la mayoría de nuestros huéspedes y minimizar su frecuencia. Como sabes el check- in se retraso por 30 minutos para garantizar el standard de limpieza requerido, habiendo realizado el check-out del huésped anterior el mismo día. Lamentablemente como indicas, uno de los 6.5 baños en la propiedad sufrió un daño fortuito muy probablemente por el mal uso de algún huésped. Como viste tratamos de solucionar inmediatamente el problema, pero vimos que la solución final podría causar mayor incomodidad. Me extraña que comentes del Wifi, ya que en ningún momento durante tu estadía me mencionaste el tema. Recientemente hemos cambiado el servicio a fibra óptica y varios huéspedes y sus familias han trabajado y estudiado recientemente de la propiedad sin ningún inconveniente. Después de un año de hospedajes, hay ciertos mantenimientos correctivos que por su naturaleza deben y han sido programados para la estación seca, como es el caso de algunos adoquines de la piscina que viste desprendidos. Me alegro que en resumen tu estadía haya sido buena y te envió un cordial saludo.

Ideal house for a large family. The bohío area and pool are very nice, as is the common living/dining area with open kitchen (well equipped, extra freezer made it easy to manage food for a large family group). Outdoor area very well maintained, as well as the pool. Close to the beach, only due to the current restrictions and the rain this weekend we could not visit it, but it is a 5-minute walk.

Estimado Eduardo, siento que no hayas podido dar con la ubicación de la casa en un principio, pero te escribí mas de una semana antes, y te sugerí, ya que no tengo acceso a tu teléfono, que me enviaras un chat con la información de los carros y para poder mandarte la dirección exacta de la casa (que es el procedimiento standard con todos los huéspedes por temas de seguridad), cosa que no se hizo hasta la hora del check in. Tratamos de acomodar y ser complacientes con todos nuestros huéspedes. Agradezco la oportunidad que tus comentarios nos dan para mejorar. Un cordial saludo.

Beautiful quiet place. Very close to the beach (literally a 5 min walk). Tons of space for groups. It has 4 bedrooms with big beds, and one with 2 bunk beds. There is also a private room in the pool house. The bbq was great for cookin. The pool was refreshing and beautiful and the outside shower was perfect for getting beach sand off. As other reviews have mentioned, it is far from stores and restaurants - you need a car. Pedro was extremely helpful, and he got us a taxi that took us to the store. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because we weren't told in the house rules/guide that we had to bring our own condiments and kitchen cleaning products: salt, oil, coffee, dish soap, dish towels etc. Other than that, we had a great experience, and we would definitely come back in the future.
